Septic Tank Maintenance

Did you know that properly maintaining septic (onsite sewer management) systems can save you money, protect your investment in your home, and prevent contamination of the groundwater?

When properly maintained, septic systems can provide long-term, effective treatment of household sanitary wastewater. Failing septic systems are costly to repair or replace and can prevent the wastewater from being properly treated. A septic system in good working order uses microbes in the soil to digest or remove harmful contaminants, bacteria and viruses from the wastewater before it reaches the groundwater.Septic Tank Management MaintenanceContact Council's Environmental Services Department on (02) 67461 755 or email us at lpsc@lpsc.nsw.gov.au for more information on onsite sewage management systems.
